The thesis
Why this category, and why we are not first
Rating apps win when ranking becomes a social game. Beli logged 30M reviews in 2024 and Yelp earns $1.46B a year from local reviews. Rateam8 applies the same loop to people, places and businesses together. We enter after the leaders have proved the behaviour, and compete on a faster, more playful ranking format.
Market size
Sector size: no reliable estimate yet
We looked for a credible, citable sector-size figure for this category and did not find one, so we are not showing one. The competitor figures below are company metrics, not a sector estimate.
Ranking people is the highest-risk part of this idea. We have not found a comparable current public sizing and are not publishing one. Moderation and safety design are core to the product, not an add-on.
Competitors
Who is in the space and what they earn
| Company | What it is | Scale (as published) | Source |
|---|---|---|---|
| Beli | Personal ranking of places | 30M reviews in 2024 | Food Network (Aug 2025) |
| Yelp | Local reviews and advertising | $1.46B net revenue, 2025 | Yelp 2025 results |
Figures marked estimate come from third-party app trackers and are approximate. "No verified figure" means we looked and found no reliable public number, so we show none.
Where in the world
Where the downloads are
We aim to launch worldwide. Download volume is the best country-level data that is public across every category, so here are the ten biggest app markets and how each moved last year.

For Rateam8
Priority markets are an editorial judgement: India and the US first. The US ranks second by downloads and monetises well (AppTweak).
The $100 million ambition
What a $100 million a year Rateam8 would take
A scenario, not a forecast and not expected revenue. $100 million a year in revenue in three years is the ambition we are building toward. This is the arithmetic of it: how many paying subscribers that takes at three illustrative prices. Rateam8 has no such traction today and nothing here is a promise.
Illustrative price points chosen for the maths. They are not Rateam8's pricing. The numbers here are a scenario, not results.

Checked October 2026. Market-research publishers often disagree with each other, so where two estimates exist we show both.
